#WeChooseWelcome
Like most church congregations, we worship, study, pray and care for one another. Our passion is working together to try to make the world a better place. By doing tangible, concrete things that improve people’s lives, we honor God and live out what Jesus means when he says, “Love God and love your neighbor.” If that resonates with you, we hope you’ll check us out online and someday soon in person!

Neighborhood Ministries
Update: May 2020
BSPC Food Pantry – The Food Pantry remains open. Food pantries are essential services, exempt from the stay-at-home order. To stop the spread of COVID-19, we now have drive-through service. No car? Just wait in the garden and a volunteer will bring your food out to you.
Volunteers pack a box of food for each patron. No one is being turned away, double portions are offered, and every effort will be made to provide a 14-day supply of food for anyone who is self-quarantined.
Pantry hours are 9:00 AM to 11:00 AM Monday through Friday.
COMPASS – The urgency to support our working families through the COVID-19 crisis is more critical than ever. Unexpected expenses, including medical, increased utilities, or transportation issues, can cripple a family’s financial stability.
Because the health and safety of our community, staff, and volunteers are extremely important to us, COMPASS will continue to serve community residents through our online portal at www.compass614.com (click the button below to connect). You may also leave us voicemail at 614-463-9612. Walk-in appointments are suspended until further notice.
Broad Street Achievement – The afterschool program has moved online in order to support our students and families.
Third Thursday Legal Clinic – Cancelled.

Broad Street Update:
May 2020
Dear Broad Street Community,
As a community and as a church we are coming to the realization that we are no longer managing a short term crisis but rather entering into a new stage in our life together. We are continuing to explore new ways of being the church. Our youth are gathering together via Zoom. Weekly Bible study is doing the same. Worship is happening every Sunday in a new way. The pre-recorded service will stream every Sunday at 8:45 a.m. It will then be available in its entirety to view at any time on Sunday or later in the week. Whether you experience worship at 8:45 a.m. or at another time, we invite you to comment and share the experience with others. If you find the comments and emojis distracting, swipe right. If you have any questions about how to access the church’s worship service on Facebook, please email Kathy Reed at communications@bspc.org
I trust that God will bless our worship this and every Sunday.
Here are a few additional ways in which Broad Street is responding to the evolving crisis.
• All activities, events and meetings at the church are suspended until further notice. The exception is our Neighborhood Ministries. (See separate Neighborhood Ministries Update.)
• We continue to strengthen our safety net. If you would like to be a part of that network of care, if you are willing to contact others at BSPC via phone, email or card/letter, email Ann Palmerton at apalmerton@bspc.org
The God who raised Jesus from the dead is at work in our lives and in our world.
Take good care of yourselves and good care of others.
